Jonathan and Ann Sentell were the parents of 5 boys and 2 girls. Son Luke had died before 1799 and is not listed in the will of Jonathan.
Jonathan was born to Samuel Sentell on Hatcher Run of now Dinwiddie Coiunty, Va on the 400 acre farm of his grandfather Samuel Sentell, Sr. His parents moved to the Red Oak Creek branch of the Nottoway River, Brunswick County, VA in the mid to late 1740s.
Here Jonathan married the next door neighbor, Ann Christie, daughter of Robert Christie.
The family moved to south of Brinkleyville, in Halifax County, North Carolina in the mid 1770s. After the close of the Rev. War, the family moved again in 1789 to the Little Stevens Creek area of northern Edgefield County, South Carolina.
Jonathan died before March 1799, the term of court in which his will was
proven. He left nearly everything to his son Steirlling, and provided a life interest
in the estate for his wife.
In the name of God, Amen, I Jonathan Sentell of the State of
South Carolina; Planter, being very sick and weak in body but
of perfect mind and memory thanks be given unto God; calling
into mind the mortality of my body, and knowing that it is
appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this my
Last will and Testament; that is to say, principally and first of
all I give and recommend my soul into the hand of Almighty
God, that gave it and My body I recommend to the Earth to be
buried in decent Christian burial, at the discre- tion of my
Executors, nothing doubting but at the general resurrection I
shall receive the same again, By the Mighty power of God, And
as touching such worldly estate wherewith it hath pleased God
to Bless me in this life, I give Demise, and Dispose of the same
in the following manner and Form -- First I give and bequeath
unto my son Steirlling Sentell the Tract of Land whereon I now
live to him and his heirs -- Also my will and Desire is that Ann
Setell [sic] my Wife Shall peacibly [sic] enjoy the said Tract of
Land During her Natural life, I give and bequeath unto my son
Steirlling Sentell one Mare filly, Also I give and bequeath unto
My son Steirlling Sentell one Heffer -- Also my will and Desire
is that after my wife Ana [sic] Sentell Decease that the rest of
my goods and Chattel Shall be Equally Divided among the rest
of my Children to wit Elisabeth Clark, William Sentell, Saml
Sentell Sarah Sentell Jonathan Sentell , And I do Apoint and
ordain Jonathan Sentell as my Executor And I do hereby
utterly disallow, revoke and Disannull all and every other
former Testament, Wills, Legacies, bequests, and Executors,
by me in any wise before named, Willed and bequeated,
Ratifying and Confirming this and no other to be my last will
and Testament In Witness whereof I have hereunto Set my

These streams are mentioned on several land transfers by Sterling Sentell. We suspect the home place was on the "180 Acres Land whereon I now live in Red Bank Creek" which Sterling conveyed to Aaron Clark, Jr., 22 October 1803. If so, his mother would have died before this date since her life interest is not mentioned in the deed. See in particular Edgefield County (South Carolina) Deed Books 24, p. 77; 28, p.1; 31, p. 123.
Jonathan's memorial is placed here at Edgefield Village Cemetery, due to previous researchers believe that Jonathan and Ann were buried at this location. His burial place remains unknow at this time.
